Polycystic Ovarian Disease (PCOD), also known as Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), is a common condition that affects many women during their reproductive years. It leads to irregular periods, high levels of male hormones (androgens), and cysts on the ovaries. Symptoms include unwanted hair growth, acne, weight gain, and difficulty getting pregnant.
Although we do not fully know the exact cause, factors like genetics, insulin resistance, and an unhealthy lifestyle contribute to the condition.
While conventional medicine focuses on symptom management, Ayurveda takes a holistic approach by addressing the root causes of PCOD. At Kesavatheeram Ayurveda, we combine traditional Ayurvedic principles with modern diagnostics to offer long-term solutions.
Ayurvedic View on PCOD
In Ayurveda, an imbalance in the body’s doshas, mainly Kapha and Vata, causes PCOD. This imbalance disrupts the reproductive system, causing cysts and hormonal imbalances. Accumulated toxins (ama) from poor digestion and lifestyle also play a role. Ayurveda aims to restore balance, detoxify the body, and promote healthy reproductive function.
Kesavatheeram Ayurveda’s Approach to Ayurvedic Treatment for PCOD
At Kesavatheeram Ayurveda, we provide ayurvedic treatment for PCOD that focus on the mind, body, and spirit. Our approach to PCOD treatment includes the following:
Detoxification (Shodhana Chikitsa) Detoxifying the body is essential for treating PCOD. We use Shodhana therapies to clear toxins and restore balance:
- Vamana (Therapeutic Emesis): Clears excess Kapha and digestive toxins.
- Virechana (Therapeutic Purgation): Purifies the body by removing excess Pitta.
- Basti (Medicated Enema): Balances Vata and detoxifies the colon, improving reproductive health.
We complement these treatments with preparatory and post-therapy practices to ensure safety and effectiveness.
Symptom Management (Shamana Chikitsa) To manage symptoms like hormonal imbalance and skin issues, we use herbal medicines and dietary changes. Some key herbs include:
- Shatavari: Supports hormonal balance and ovarian function.
- Ashwagandha: Reduces stress and helps maintain hormonal balance.
- Neem and Turmeric: Address acne and other skin problems linked to PCOD.
Lifestyle and Diet Modifications Diet and lifestyle changes are crucial for managing PCOD. We provide tailored guidance on:
Pathya (Diet): A diet rich in fiber, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory foods. We advise patients to avoid processed foods, sugar, and dairy, as they can worsen Kapha imbalances.
Vyayama (Exercise): Regular physical activity, like yoga and walking, supports weight management and improves insulin sensitivity.
Stress Management Stress can worsen PCOD, so we offer stress-reducing therapies, including:
- Abhyanga (Oil Massage): Promotes circulation, reduces stress, and balances doshas.
- Shirodhara (Oil Pouring Therapy): Helps calm the mind and reduce anxiety.
- Meditation and Pranayama: Aid in emotional well-being and hormonal balance.
